Late Migrations by Margaret Renkl Pdf

From the New York Times columnist, a portrait of a family and the cycles of joy and grief that mark the natural world: “Has the makings of an American classic.” —Ann Patchett Growing up in Alabama, Margaret Renkl was a devoted reader, an explorer of riverbeds and red-dirt roads, and a fiercely loved daughter. Here, in brief essays, she traces a tender and honest portrait of her complicated parents—her exuberant, creative mother; her steady, supportive father—and of the bittersweet moments that accompany a child’s transition to caregiver. And here, braided into the overall narrative, Renkl offers observations on the world surrounding her suburban Nashville home. Ringing with rapture and heartache, these essays convey the dignity of bluebirds and rat snakes, monarch butterflies and native bees. As these two threads haunt and harmonize with each other, Renkl suggests that there is astonishment to be found in common things: in what seems ordinary, in what we all share. For in both worlds—the natural one and our own—“the shadow side of love is always loss, and grief is only love’s own twin.” Gorgeously illustrated by the author’s brother, Billy Renkl, Late Migrations is an assured and memorable debut. “Magnificent . . . Readers will savor each page and the many gems of wisdom they contain.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

On the Natural History of Destruction by W.G. Sebald Pdf

W. G. Sebald completed this extraordinary, important and controversial book before his untimely death in December 2001. It is a harrowing study of the devastation of German cities by Allied bombardment in World War II, and an examination of the silence in German literature and culture about this unprecedented trauma. On the Natural History of Destruction is an essential and deeply relevant study of war and society, suffering and amnesia. Like Sebald’s novels, it is studded with meticulous observation, moments of black humour, and throughout, the author’s unmatched intelligence and humanity.

The Magazine of Natural History, Vol. 6 by J. C. Loudon Pdf

Excerpt from The Magazine of Natural History, Vol. 6: And Journal of Zoology, Botany, Mineralogy, Geology, and Meteorology; 1833 The present Volume, among other valuable information, con tains notices of various new cheap publications on the subject of Natural History the sale of which, to such an extent as to remu nerate the publishers, maybe considered as an undoubted evidence that a taste for this science has pervaded all ranks. It is gratify ing to us to reflect that we have been among the first to rouse this dormant love of nature and truth and still more so, to look forward to the influence which a love of nature, simple truth, and matters of fact, must one day have on the general state of society. The first symptom of the decline of superstition, and of a blind reverence for whatever has the sanction of antiquity, is the incipient desire of examining the tangible objects which sur round us. The first taste of mankind is for fables the last, for matters of fact. As the spread of a taste for natural history all over the world interferes with no political or religious interest, it is already making rapid strides towards that desirable period, when, in the figurative language of the Bible, the knowledge of the Lord shall cover the earth, as the waters cover the seas. In thanking our contributors for the continued assistance which they afford us, we have at the same time to apologise for the tardiness with which some of their communications are inserted, and for the abridgment of others. The truth is, that so abundant is our supply of materials relating to the delightful subjects which our work embraces, that we could, with the greatest facility, as far as matter is concerned, bring out this Magazine twice as often as it now appears.

The Magazine of Natural History, Vol. 5 by J. C. Loudon Pdf

Excerpt from The Magazine of Natural History, Vol. 5: And Journal of Zoology, Botany, Mineralogy, Geology, and Meteorology The Magazine of Natural History, our readers, we trust, will agree with us in thinking, improves as it proceeds and this Fifth Volume, now brought to a close, will be found to excel all that have preceded it, in the variety and interest of the communi cations which it contains. For this superiority we are mainly indebted to our contributors, among whom, it will be found, are not only some of the first naturalists of this country, but also others, whom this Magazine has been the means of exciting to enter on this branch of study. Our readers cannot have failed to observe that this work, as well as the Gardener's Magazine, has derived the greatest advantage from the industry and talent of our excellent co-editor, Mr. Denson. In consequence of the increasing number of communications, we have, for more than a year past, contemplated the idea of publishing the work monthly; and we have solicited, from time to time, the opinion of our readers and correspondents on this subject. Our correspondents, with very few exceptions, approve of the proposed change, but we have not the same assurance from our readers generally. We have, therefore, after mature con sideration, determined on continuing the work another year, at least, on the same terms of publication as heretofore.
